Meet the Doctors
Dr. Tom Bieber
Dr. Tom Bieber is a proud second-generation dentist, following in the footsteps of his father, Dr. Rae Bieber, who founded Lake Dental Associates in 1956. Raised in Clear Lake, Dr. Tom was an accomplished athlete, becoming only the second wrestler in the history of Clear Lake High School to win a state championship. His passion for wrestling took him to Utah State University, where he competed at the collegiate level.
After completing his undergraduate studies, Dr. Tom pursued his dental degree at the University of Iowa College of Dentistry, where he distinguished himself both academically and as a leader. He served as house manager for the Delta Sigma Delta dental fraternity, ensuring it remained a supportive home for dental students.

It was also during dental school that Dr. Tom met his wife, Lisa. After graduation, the couple returned to Clear Lake, where Dr. Tom joined his father’s practice, continuing the family legacy of exceptional dental care.
Dr. Tom and Lisa have two children, Joe and Matt. Joe is currently involved in outreach ministries in California, and Matt is also a member of the family practice, making Lake Dental Associates a proud three-generation practice.
When he's not providing dental care, Dr. Tom is passionate about the outdoors, enjoying hunting, fishing, and spending time at his farm near Pilot Knob. He is also deeply committed to humanitarian work, playing a key role in the development, construction, and ongoing operation of a dental clinic at The Consolation Center Orphanage in Les Cayes, Haiti.
Dr. Tom remains dedicated to serving the Clear Lake community and beyond, bringing both skill and heart to his patients and his global outreach efforts.
